Watch Major Lazer’s Watch Out For This (Bumaye) music video

American dance music trio Major Lazer collaborated with South African disc jockeys DJ Maphorisa and DJ Raybel for the release of the Watch Out For This (Bumaye) music video.

The music video was released on Wednesday, 13 March 2019 and is largely influenced by reggae themes. The visuals open with a group of dancers in a hair salon, where they perform a choreographed dance to the strong beat of the song. It then progresses to an underground dance party, which has a backdrop of legendary musician Bob Marley, as well as several Jamaican flags. Filmed at the dance halls of Cape Town and salons of Bellville and Woodstock, the music video also incorporates signature South African dance moves.

The original song by Major Lazer was released in 2013 and featured Busy Signal, The Flexican and FS Green. The 2019 remix now includes South African influences from DJ Maphorisa and DJ Raybel, who add their gqom sound to the already popular song.
